The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

But other than that, there was a dead silence inside.

There were many bullet holes on the walls and floor of the corridor, and there were still traces of black blood that had not yet dried up. The amount of bleeding alone was almost enough to be judged as a lethal dose.

But the strange thing is that there is no corpse around.

Even judging by the bloody footprints and other strip-shaped drag marks on the ground, these corpses were still moving on their own after death.

The blood trail continued to the rocket launch tower hundreds of meters away.

Under the night sky, a space shuttle with a huge "Arasaka" logo on it stands there quietly.

But the surrounding area was in a mess.

The ground was covered with a paste of blood and flesh, including those of the rocket base staff, Arasaka's own soldiers, and some unidentified people wearing black tights - they were artificial vampires created by biotechnology.

Looking down from a high altitude, it looks like a dense network of blood spots.

The shattered remains of hovercraft and drones were also scattered on the ground.

Militech (Military Technology)

Although most of the metal plate has melted, the remaining half can still be easily recognized as the symbol of military technology.

And at the top of the rocket launch tower, Lin Qiao was sitting there leisurely.

Holding a smoke rifle in one hand, he used the destructive light bullets enhanced by spiritual power to easily deal with the zombies and military technology remnants in the distance.

With the other hand holding the phone, he was chatting with Lucy on the other side in a relaxed tone.

"——I'm fine here. The vampires sent by the biotechnology department have been dealt with. However, most of my subordinates have died or turned into zombies."

"Do you need to send some more people over?"

"No, that's not necessary. Although there are a lot more guys than I expected at the beginning, it's generally going well."

And too many people will just get in the way.

If it wasn't for the sake of pretending to the other side, he wouldn't even want to bring anyone with him.

Now that the goal has been achieved, keeping only him as a fighting force like now is actually the best solution.

"Speaking of which, what's going on over there? It seems like Militech has intervened."

"You're asking too late. I've already captured their operations director... I think his name is Meredith Stott?"

Does that mean the military technology side has also been defeated?

——But it’s only natural.

A few hours ago, shortly after WNS News reported the news.

As expected, as soon as the sun set, BioTech sent almost all artificial vampires to attack the rocket launch base in Night City, trying to stop the rocket launch and keep Ciri on Earth.

Even worse, they could just snatch it back from Arasaka...

Well, I have to say it’s a good idea.

Then they were hit by fire from the Arasaka army that had been ambushed on the periphery.

After finally dealing with these people, including those at the rocket launch base, just when they were about to breathe a sigh of relief and plan to intercept the space shuttle.

He ran into Lin Qiao, the last and strongest line of defense here.

Then it’s a story of a quack-killing spree—they’re responsible for the quack.

At the same time, when the biotechnology vampires were dispatched in large numbers, Maine and V and their team also began their actions against biotechnology.

The only unexpected thing was that military technology was also introduced in this process.

In fact, the firepower strike force that had been ambushed outside the rocket base was eliminated by military technology.

However, although it was an accident, it was also within reason.

After all, biotechnology has always cooperated with military technology before, not to mention using its financial power to rent the latter's army as private security.

In recent days, Military Technology has been hit hard by Arasaka's suicidal attack, causing its stock price to plummet.

Now that they have the opportunity, they naturally wouldn't mind joining forces with Biotech to take down Arasaka.

However, unlike the latter, compared to the rocket launch base, their main force is placed on Arasaka Tower.

Instead of building a space shuttle of unknown meaning, they would rather carry out a direct decapitation operation, get rid of the president, Yoshinobu, and then find a way to push Michiko Arasaka, who is from the pro-American faction within Arasaka, to the position.

It’s not that they have good intentions, but it’s really not realistic to bring down Arasaka in one go.

Add to that the rumors about Saburo before...

If you push too hard, it might even provoke an even more serious backlash.

But just like biotechnology, the idea is good, but it is a little difficult to implement.

——Because Lucy is the one who looks after the house.

The large force of military technology is indeed coming with great momentum, almost the entire army is mobilized, determined to take down Arasaka Tower.

But in front of a full bottle of Hacker Bottle that has special attacks on electronic items, it is almost certain to kill them, and the entire army will be completely paralyzed, without even a chance of resistance.

Now, someone rushed directly into her lair, and even the person in charge was arrested. It can only be said that this is just like Amei in this world - she is both inexperienced and playful.

"How are Manyin and V doing?"

"It's not going smoothly. Sasha, who was attacking the biotechnology building head-on with Manyin and the others, was entangled by those vampires. And according to reports from V and David, there are also many vampires around Joanne. It will probably take some time to deal with them."

"There are still some left to look after the house..."

This was also expected. Lin Qiao had never thought that the biotechnology side would mobilize all its forces.

...I just didn't expect so much would be left.

It seems that the vampire's control over biotechnology is not as deep as his own over Arasaka, so much so that even biotechnology is reluctant to send some cannon fodder to die.

We have to thank Saburo Arasaka here.

I hope that in his next life he can be reborn to work for Cao Wang, the boss of Kang Tao, and be a worker who does not ask for anything in return.

"Do you need my help? The military technology has been suppressed anyway." Lucy suggested.

"That's fine, go help V and David take down Joanne first, and then go help Sasha."

After sorting out the situation over there, Lin Qiao hung up the phone.

Although the exploration of the power plant allowed him to see a lot of things, Marshall must have something hidden, and these things were undoubtedly extremely important to him.

Lin Qiao couldn't be sure whether Biotech and Joanne knew what Marshall was hiding.

But overall, it's still worth a try.

After all, this is also the key to whether he can kill Marshall.

There was only half of the moon left above my head, reflecting bright light and appearing particularly bright in the cloudless night.

In the distance, two streamlined black fighter jets with sonic boom clouds swirling around their wings were roaring towards them at an extremely fast speed.

Chapter 396 Lin Qiao: Today I am going to kill you a million times!

"Here he comes."

He looked up at the two supersonic fighter jets flying in the distance.

Almost in the blink of an eye, two fighter planes with sonic boom clouds flew over the top of the rocket launch base.

One of them flew directly over the rocket launcher and headed straight into Night City.

However, the other plane suddenly changed its flight trajectory before arriving.

It went straight and without slowing down, crashing into the open space in front of the rocket launcher, making a suicidal move.

boom!

Without any landing movements, the supersonic fighter maintained its super-high speed flight and turned into brilliant fireworks the moment it touched the ground.

The ignited fuel in the plane's fuel tank turned into black smoke and floated into the sky, contributing its own little bit to the already terrible natural environment of Cyberpunk.

And in the firelight, groups of bats emerged and then formed a human figure.

Marshall, Resurrection Coin -1

clap clap-

Sparse applause sounded from the top of the rocket launcher.

"Wow~ What a great defense! Do you need me to give you a little rocket?"

"..."

This was the first time Marshall heard Lin Qiao's voice.

Although they had fought each other last time, the other party did not talk to him throughout the whole process, which made Marshall subconsciously think that the other party was a person with a relatively cold personality.

But the slightly exaggerated tone at the moment made people quite annoyed, and one could tell at the moment that this was an extremely bad guy.

"Where's Ciri? Where did you hide her?"

"Oh, who knows?"

Lin Qiao, who was sitting on top of the rocket launcher, spread his hands, slowly stood up, and pretended to be thinking.

"Maybe he's in a rocket, maybe he's in Arasaka Tower, maybe he's already on Mars, and what you saw on TV was just a recording."

"Or maybe she has already used the power of the Ancient Blood to leave this world. Who knows?"

"But no matter what, you'll have made a wasted trip today."

He is lying!

Marshall was absolutely certain of this.

After receiving Joanne's message, he directly boarded the supersonic fighter that Arasaka Hanako arranged for him and flew directly from Japan to Night City.

But on the way to the airport, to be on the safe side, he killed a few passers-by and used blood divination as sacrifices.

It is certain that Ciri should still be in their world.

However, this was the only information he could obtain.

First of all, the Blood Divination can only be used once every 24 hours and cannot be used continuously.

Secondly, divination itself can only give simple results such as "yes" and "no", or "good" and "bad".

Once the content requires something more specific, such as a specific location, it will no longer work.

And Marshall had to admit that Lin Qiao's words were completely dancing on his heart.

At least with the level of technological development in this world and Lin Qiao's mastery of Arasaka, it is possible that the other party has hidden Ciri somewhere outside the earth.

Or even more ruthless, after storing enough food and water, launch a spaceship with no destination and drag the other party until they leave this world.

——If that were the case, he wouldn’t even be able to find it.

In response, Marshall had only one word for Lin Qiao: "Fuck you."

boom!

After a gunshot, a hole as thick as a finger appeared between Marshall's eyebrows.

"Don't be in a daze. Your opponent is right in front of you, yet you still dare to think about other things... I mean, you have a really big heart."

Or is this just the downside of having a lot of luck?

Shaking the smoke rifle in his hand and looking down at Marshall below, Lin Qiao's tone was teasing.

Because there was no spiritual power involved, the attack did not take his life.

"…After being with Ciri for so long, I don't believe you won't be tempted by the power of the ancient blood."

"Um, so what?"

"You should have collected hair and blood samples for research. Give me some of those and I will..."

"Making clones?" Lin Qiao smiled.

We are indeed fellow countrymen from the technological world. Everyone’s ideas are much more reliable than those of the elves in the magical world.

but--

"What the fuck are you thinking about?"
